The Thin Blue Line: How Humanitarianism Went to War
Conor Foley
The idea that we should "do something" to help those suffering in far-off places is the main impulse driving those who care about human rights. This book explores how the doctrine of humanitarian intervention has been used to allow states to invade other nations in the name of human rights.
